Hi All,
I have a 2014 Mercury 150hp EFI 4 Stroke engine and it's due for a 300 hr maintenance.
As I was draining out the gear oil everything seems to be okay, no shaving or pieces of metal, dark oil color, until I took a closer look at the oil sitting in the pan. I notice a slight milky color. See attachment.
I was told it could be two things water pump seal or prop shaft seal.
What does everyone think? Lower unit compression check?
Thanks,
Rogelio
